This is a coffee painting of a pumpkin diving helmet sitting on the sea floor amongst shells and coral, accompanied by weird fish and an acorn squid.
Who lives in a pumpkin helm under the sea?

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage. A woman answers the door. We have come for the child, says the hooded figure So soon? she asks It is time, says the hooded figure. The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card! What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman, the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them. Do not cry mother. I am a writer now.

Photo of a brown and white mini horse standing in a paddock outside. She is adorable!
Brave little Clementine! She is one of two senior mini horses we took in last Dec when their elderly owner could no longer care for them. Change is hard, but especially for Clementine since she is completely blind. She was so brave through everything and is now enjoying the spring warmth! 🍊🌸

Pen drawing of a silhouetted figure with a halo like head piece standing under an arch of arcane symbols while three pillars of stone float on either side of them. They are standing under a stram of energy that foes into an eye shaped sun like structure while two orbs of light use that structure as the apex of a triangle. The ground is a series of branch and root like structures spreading into a platform the figure stands on

Black-and-white photo of a light skinned woman wearing a light colored house dress sitting in a chair in a living room type setting. She has something in her hand that is greatly desired by two cats in front of her. One of them is a shorthaired tabby cat that is reaching up with its paw to try to grab what is in her hand, the other is a white and tabby cat, which seems to be climbing up her leg.

A rough sketch of a lone sea captain sailing into the eye of a storm as the tentacles of a sea monster wrap around the vessel, destroying the main mast. The captain is gritting his teeth in anger and defiance as he stares into the maw of this massive beast that looms past the view of the camera. He holds the wheel steady as a storm rages in the background, lightning crackling down to the water's wavy surface.
A rough sketch of what 'perseverance' means to me. #art

A digital painting of a blacksmith behind an anvil...wait that's the head of a hammer! He seems to be forging a candy cane in his little workshop filled with life-sized items. This is the Candysmith, a tiny Elf forging crafts out of sugar and chocolate. His shelves are filled with various candies and all around him can be seen items from the real world such as a candle holder forge, a box of matches, a pocket watch, a pin cushion, a spool of thread and some tinker toys.
A digital painting of a Water Golem rising from the sea, crashing through the path of two nearby sailing vessels. The creature is shaped as that of a man, mouth open and arms rising into the air as if this being has surfaced to take a breath of air, but the creature seems angry, as if the vessels disturbed his slumber. The water takes on a translucent green in the base of the wave and the form of the Golem rising, and a yellow light beams forth from his eyes and mouth. The sky is a brilliant cloudless blue, revealing what looks like a calm and serene day to be sailing on the open ocean.
A digital painting of a Medieval Knight cursed to bare the form of a monster. He kneels with his sword in the ground, bowing down in acceptance before the tremendous burden that would be his fate. The sword is a two-handed Claymore whose golden pommel is decorated with vines and Celtic symbols. There is a book at his side, bound by chains. The character's silhouette is highlighted by bright saturated light pouring out from a break in the clouds in a very dark and overcast sky. Stone crosses mark graves that are scattered throughout the distance. The character seems to be steaming in the cold rain, his red eyes lit with a fiery light. Dark clouds in the distance almost appear to form a set of large black wings.
A digital painting depicting a dusty leather-bound tome covered in vines on a concrete altar. The book's cover is weathered and worn, and has designs pressed into the leather. Inside of the vaguely floral border you can make out an array of symbols including a Horse's head and a Serpent among others. This ancient book is covered in years of growth and neglect, but you can clearly see the title in gold embossed lettering glimmering in the candlelight: "Camulodunum Codicis". The book is locked with a steel latch. You can see a keyhole under the vines...

A drawing of a pug, standing on hind legs in a pikachu onesie. The pug's face is partly shadowed by the hood of the onesie and their expression is wide-eyed and askance.
A digital illustration, a low angle showing Link and Zelda facing away. Link has his hands on his hips, Zelda is tilting her head looking at a map. In the background is Peach's Castle, from the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario, in his boxers, is jumping angrily from the castle's bridge toward Link and Zelda. Peach is on the castle balcony looking shocked with her hand over her mouth.
Digital illustration with a traditional appearance of purple and yellow-orange hues on canvas. The setting is Clocktown, from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. A low view of Link stepping away cautiously while looking up past the clocktower at the massive and menacing moon that will soon crash down on Termina.
Digital painting of an ethereal woman shackled in outer space, her head replaced by a black hole. The black hole's radiating energy merges with the cosmos, while dark bands swirl around her body, symbolizing a form of mental prison.

I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with polymer clay lately. I made about 20 pairs of these in three different colors of red.
I used to offer orange but let's face it, when you think Ladybug you think Red 🐞 #polymerclay #bsnm
